Adding English Nz, Removing English Us

[hamstar]

I set the thing in winnt.sif that says:

[RegionalSettings]
    LanguageGroup=1
    SystemLocale=00001409
    UserLocale=00001409
    InputLocale=1409:00000409

to be for New Zealand... but then, when I boot into windows I have that annoyign language bar appear...

from which I delete the default created US entry and tell the language bar to go away forever in less words...

Any idea how I can kill the US entry this side of the first run?

Cheers

I do a similar thing (I have UK only) which works fine, with no default US option showing

[RegionalSettings]
	Language = 0809

also under

[GuiUnattended]
	TimeZone = 85

also under

[Unattended]
        KeyboardLayout="United Kingdom"

I’m not familiar with the Kiwi keyboard layout but the time zone will of course be different

Your WINNT.SIF should contain the following entries..

;The [RegionalSettings] section contains entries for installing regional settings during Setup.
[RegionalSettings]
   ;Specify the language group (1=Western Europe and United States)
    LanguageGroup=1
   ;Specify the Language/Locale to install (1409=English (New Zealand))
    Language=1409

I use the following entries in an INF file to remove the US keyboard layout and disable the language bar.

;------------ Disable Language Bar ------------
;The following registry entries disable the Language bar
[DisableLangBar.AddReg]
   ;Turn off advanced text services
    HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CTF","Disable Thread Input Manager",0x00010001,1
   ;Do not show the Language Bar    
    HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CTF\LangBar","ShowStatus",0x00010001,3
   ;{description required}
    HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CTF\MSUTB","ShowDeskBand",0x00010001,0

[DisableLangBar.DelReg]
   ;Remove English (US) keyboard layout
    HKCU,"Keyboard Layout\Preload","2"
   ;Disable Text Input Services support    
    HKCU,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run","CTFMON.EXE"
;------------ Disable Language Bar ------------
